When your paired phone is in the vehicle and turned on, you can make and answer calls without touching your phone. Just follow these simple commands and the system will walk you through the rest of the commands with ease. At any time you may press the TALK button and after the beep say:
“CALL” + the person’s name you want to call (example: “CALL JOHN SMITH”).
“DIAL” + the number you want to dial (example: “CALL 555-1212”).
“REDIAL” to call the last contact dialed.
The system uses your device’s mobile service, so the same level of performance will apply. For example, if you experience static on your smartphone due to low signal strength, then you will also experience static using voice recognition.
Press the TALK button.
After the beep, say, “HELP” for options in your current area of operation.
The battery performance of your mobile device depends on many factors, including the features and settings you use. Utilising the Bluetooth® feature in some devices may drain the device’s battery more quickly. To preserve battery strength, turn Bluetooth® off when you are not using it.

Yes, you can listen to an iPod or other compatible portable audio player through your vehicle’s speakers using the USB mode.
This may be due to an improperly adjusted volume control setting on the mobile phone or audio device. For best performance when using Bluetooth®, first adjust the volume level on your mobile phone or audio device to the highest possible level before distortion starts, then adjust the volume on the audio system.
Some vehicles exhibit low volume when using Bluetooth®. This requires the audio volume to be turned unusually high to achieve normal listening levels. When you’re finished using Bluetooth®, reduce the volume level again because the audio system re-engages and high volumes can occur on other modes including radio or CD.
You can import up to 5,000 contacts from your connected phone via Bluetooth®, including address and image, when applicable.

We all know shortcuts within our local areas that we use avoid rush hour traffic or poorly timed traffic lights. Navigation systems calculate routes using the detailed information within the map database and take into account various circumstances including actual distance, average speed, physical / functional classification of the road, turn restrictions and more. Personal preferences can be factored into the route if your navigation system offers the functionality to input preferences into the system. Such preferences could include motorways, toll roads, emphasizing speed over distance, and allowing the user to avoid specific roads or areas.
